Summary: "multivitamin absorption"

A little over a year ago I was diagnosed with Celiac disease and so I have some nutritional deficiencies. So I have looked into several multivitamins and have learned what favorable forms of nutrients to look for in a multivitamin. As mentioned in other reviews this vitamin has the desirable, natural forms of vitamins and nutrients. I have had a lot of energy during the day since I started taking it over a month ago. It compares favorably with other more expensive vitamins. But I was concerned about the vitamin being in tablet form rather than capsule, thinking it may not dissolve well. Being an Organic Chemistry professor, I have access to a variety of individuals with other science based backgrounds. In our Microbiology department, they have an instrument called a stomacher, which mimics the activity of a human stomach. I placed two of the Rainbow light multivitamins, along with a couple other supplements in a bag containing plain distilled water and a little enzyme (overall pH approximately 6). This bag was placed in the stomacher for about 5 minutes. When it came out the solution was pretty much homogeneous (uniform solution) throughout and a yellow / green color. I think other reviewers only considered the pH of the stomach (as I originally thought), but there is a lot of agitation that occurs within to break up food and whatever else is swallowed. So the take home story is it looks like I can stop chewing it up before swallowing it. It is convenient to take one tablet a day but not optimal. Any vitamin has half lifes where the effectiveness diminishes throughout the day. It would be better to take a series of vitamins and minerals throughout the day.

Summary: "Best multivitamin I have tried!"

I have tried several multivitamins over the last few years and most have made my stomach upset, even with food. On reading some of the reviews, this vitamin sounded like a hit. It had all I needed and was supposed to be easy on the stomach. It is. I can take it every day, even without eating breakfast at times, and it does not upset my stomach.

Would recommend to all my friends.

Summary: "Pretty Good"

I got this vitamin to start my vitamin regiment and it is pretty good. It dissolves very well in the body so you absorb it all. The one this I noticed is that it seems to be pretty hard on my kidneys. I think with any supplement you are suppose to take in more water, but its seems like I have to take in an excess amount. All in all I like this product.

Summary: "Decent Vitamins"

They're food based which is great for Vitamins but I have 1 big problem with these. If you're like me and can't stand the taste/smell of vitamins you will Not be happy with these, they taste terrible in my opinion and the taste lingers in my mouth for awhile even after i rinse with mouthwash right after; yes, rinse with Listerine right after I take this vitamin because it takes so bad.

Summary: "Feel Better"

I felt better after taking these tablets. Visible improvement is seen in my skin (so I know I am getting Vitamin E at least). Tablets have laxative effect.
